i say, look in politics and in democracy, sometimes you win elections, sometimes you lose elections. and i worked very hard but i lost and then president obama asked me to be secretary of state and i said yes. and why did he ask me and why did i say yes? because we both love our country. >> you can see all of that interview tomorrow night at 7:00 eastern time on "60 minutes" right here on cbs. >>> while things appear to be looking up for the economy the s&p closed above 1500 on friday. that was the first time since december 2007, the start of the great recession. the dow, which topped 14,000 in october that year before tumbling to 6500 in 2009 closed just 268 points shy of its all-time high. >>> ever since the 2008 financial collapse people have been asking when will things get better. well, the answer from the world economic forum is this year if washington doesn't make it worse. my co-anchor anthony mason isn't here with us because he's covering the meeting in davos, switzerland. good morning. >> reporter: hi, rebecca. it's warmer here than there. to get some perspective on that i
